Vile Haiti commentators slammed

18/01/2010

Over the weekend two right wing fundamentalists made some truly horrific comments about the earthquake in Haiti. Republican Rum Lambaugh urged people not to 'give a penny to Haiti' because Barack Obama might siphon it off for the Democratic party, or worse use the disaster for political ends. Evangelical Pat Robertson blamed the Haitians for their own disaster for having made a 'pact with the devil' years ago to end French rule.

While clips of their disturbing diatribe have made their way onto YouTube, an even bigger backlash against them seems - thankfully, to be making waves on the internet.
Here they are getting slammed into the back end of next week by Keith Olbermann . And rightfully so.
